Paneer kali mirch is a comparatively underrated recipe but you can find it in many Indian restaurants nowadays. This recipe is also known as “paneer dum kali mirch” or “dum paneer kali mirch” . This curry tastes great with paratha, chapati, and naan.
Here, black pepper powder is the only ingredient used to give spiciness to the recipe. Rest only salt and sugar is used. As I have said earlier, The curry is made with onion, cashews, green chilli and ginger.
I have used Cuisinart Canada’s professional nonstick skillet here which makes sure that my curry will not be overcooked or burn or stick at the bottom while cooking because of the use of cashews.
Ingredients
fresh malai paneer – also known as cottage cheese. This is the hero ingredient of the recipe.
for the gravy – onion, cashews, green chili, ginger, butter, salt, sugar and black pepper powder are the ingredients used to prepare this curry.

Now that I’ve been making my own paneer, I can’t wait to make this dish. Might goat cheese friend say that the goat milk will be available next month. This dish is absolutely breathtaking, Priya. I will report back once I get a chance to make it.
How divine! Paneer and cashew nuts, so rich and delicious.
A huge paneer fan and love it in all its avatars 🙂

I’m a fan of anything with paneer. The “sauce” you made sounds delicious and is unique to me. How can it not be good with cashews and onions. YUM!
